Indeed it is. ESPN+ is a paid subscription add on, ESPN2 is just another cable channel. Take a look on ESPN(2) at 1 PM today and you'll see the dog and pony show----but bring a barf bag and have your thumb on the remote to quickly change channels:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Much better coverage by Joe Buck and Michael Collins today from 1-2. Perhaps the difference was having Freddie Couples and Pat Perez as guest as opposed to Peyton and Eli Manning.

Sounds like the pregame show before the superbowl. Hours of nonsense.

Also the fourth hole at Truman Executive course right here in The Villages. I've never played it when the green on the right was open, but there are two greens.

There are no words to describe Buck and the peanut guy. An embarrassment to golf

Missing Johnny Miller, he was great.

Can you imagine................at The Villages, tee'g off across a green.

Now that would be exciting.

:popcorn:

Drives me nuts when you are trying to watch the action and all these guys want to do is talk. I believe they signed Peyton and Eli Manning to do some golf telecasts which will be awful. Whenever they do NFL games, their mouths run constantly and tge camera is on them instead of the field of play. Worst telecaster ever.

Would be interesting if one hole had a choice of greens.

Have two greens on one hole, different difficulties..........let the golfer choose.

:jester:
I think they should have to play “dizzy bat” on one hole each nine and hit the shot within ten seconds

don't know how Joe Buck gets in on every sport. Drives me crazy

“Along with hall of famer Troy Aikman this is Joe Buck”. Won’t be hearing that anymore

Agreed, what makes Troy Aikman and Joe Buck worth 25 million? Then they put them on a hockey playoff game and they suck. ESPN executives are idiots.

If you have an app that will let you view Sky Sports golf channel in Europe, there is real coverage and no such nonsense as on espn.

dewilson58 05-21-2022 12:21 PM
13 over, no need to continue the coverage.

The mute button is your friend. It’s better to tape and watch on 2x speed
